I agree; now, I'm fine with a reward inequality. There are people that put money, time and energy to build what they have.

It does get disconcerting to realize that best case most people will have a vote that is worth 2cents or less, while others have a 20% vote worth 50cents. When you see that bots are the primary source of income...

That's also why I am hesitant about an advertising model, ads get paid typically on views and clicks, when my average post might get 5-10 readers, that's not going to add much, but someone who can pay a bot to make it appear as though there are thousands more views, they will get the benefit of a larger chunk of ad revenue... it won't help in the way that is stated as intent.
